It's an old team aging by the minute; I think it's very likely that they've already had their best streak of the season. Their pen behind Rivera is the shakiest in years. Mussina is the only sure thing in the rotation. Posada is breaking down. Damon is breaking down. Sheffield HAS broken down. The defense, infield and outfield, has been lousy, and won't get better. The Sox, meanwhile, will be better from here on. They are only a couple hot weeks away from the Yankees in runs scored...they'll catch them and pass them going away. Wake has a run of 6 or 7 wins coming. Varitek is finally hitting. Ortiz hasn't gotten hot yet. Crisp is still shaking off the rust. <BR/><BR/>How anyone can look at the two teams and conclude what Silverman has is amazing...how a person can make his living watching sports and be that dumb tells you a lot about his profession. I picked the Sox towin this division by more than 5 games, and I am more convinced than ever that I'm right.Jack Marshallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07615512667971393896noreply@blogger.com
